Superstar

\"&　　 Many years later, when people look back on the film "", they are shocked to find that since 1944｜Pulp Fiction won the Palme d’Or, it has dominated the American public opinion circle for at least twelve months. , And the follow-up continued uninterruptedly.

After that, "" produced a series of follow-up effects. It changed its position in Hollywood. It allowed the culture of the sixties to re-enter the mainstream. It allowed postmodern pop culture to invade the film industry. It created a new kind of The means and methods, it gives a brand-new interpretation of the entertainment effect of the film industry. It even changes the traditional aesthetics of the academic school. It even makes cult movies come into the room...

At the same time, the great success of "" has also become a milestone in Hugo's summit. Although many people think that "" is the work that made Hugo, more people chose "Pulp Fiction" for no other reason, because Hugo defeated the "" led by Tom Cruise through this work. In the same period, it also defeated -, two action superstars starring works, this work has also become a Hugo creation.

In addition, "" also ushered in an era when Hugo, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt stand together, completely changing the pattern of Hollywood actors in the next decade.

Therefore, there is no doubt that "" is the most influential and far-reaching film in the entire 1990s, not one of them.

""The strong influence in North America is incomparable. The main reason is that this movie reflects the history of American cultural evolution, the essence of Los Angeles area culture, and the crystallization of American post-modern pop culture. This is for American audiences. , Naturally has an incomparable attraction.

However, in the overseas international market, the ideological resonance obtained by "" is obviously inferior.

However, the biggest shining point of "" is not only the American culture, but also the violent stylization and the ring shape. These characteristics have received more response in overseas markets.

Therefore, the influence of "" presents a very interesting contrast. In the North American market, people are more about discussing the culture of this film. Of course, other characteristics are also the focus, but they are not as interesting as people's interest in American history. ; And in the international market, people are more discussing the charm of language and pictures, especially the contrast between violence and humor has been widely welcomed.

In this way, it also promoted the interest of overseas audiences in "". Many people began to analyze the cultural phenomena and slang meanings in the film, which triggered a retro momentum of the American trend in the 1960s. This is unexpected. Of it. At the same time, it can be seen that as a kind of art carrier, the follow-up influence that the film can produce is far beyond expectations.

Therefore, it is not surprising that "" has achieved very good box office results in the international market.

In the beginning, no distribution company was willing to take over the overseas distribution of "". As a company, it is already very difficult to shoulder the North American distribution task. They do not have any overseas distribution system at all. If the overseas distribution departments of major production companies Unwilling to take over, which means that "Pulp Fiction" cannot be released overseas.

But the Weinstein brothers' methods were revealed at this time.

After that, the Weinstein brothers split their arms and visited all over the world, looking for distribution partners country by country. Since the distribution departments of major production companies refused to cooperate, they were looking for local second-tier distribution companies, even. Although this also means that the scale of the issuance will not be too large, it is already the best choice.

This move of the Weinstein brothers was ridiculed by the executives of many production companies, believing that they were doing useless work. "Such a film may win Palme d'Or in Shanghai, it may also win the love of film critics, and may even achieve decent box office results in the North American market, but it is difficult for such a film to be recognized in overseas markets.

What's more, the cost of the movie is only 8 million U.S. dollars, and it is estimated that the overseas distribution will cost a lot of money, and it may even happen that the box office is not enough for the distribution cost, not to mention the dividends. This is the so-called useless work.

But the Weinstein brothers persisted in this way. Relying on the name of Palme d’Or and Hugo’s appeal, they were stupefied to negotiate the distribution rights in 37 countries and regions, which took four months. , We can see the hardships and difficulties of the process. At this time, it's time for a good harvest.

"" was the first to land in France and Germany in the third week of December. This is a very clever approach, because the film has already achieved a good reputation.

Sure enough, "" won another round of applause after it was released in these two countries and regions, and the box office was also very gratifying. Germany contributed 20 million US dollars in box office data, and France also 10 million US dollars, although it cannot be compared with "" Compared with the popular works like that, this result also ranks among the top ten year-end box offices in their respective markets, which is really incredible.

After feeling the enthusiasm of Germany and France, in the fourth week of December, the United Kingdom, Brazil and Italy ushered in "". After that, Spain, Mexico, Finland and other markets were also released in succession until mid-February. , Officially released in 37 countries and regions.

Unexpectedly, Japan has become ""'s largest overseas ticket warehouse. It contributed a full 28 million US dollars in the box office and performed exceptionally well. Germany is the second largest ticket warehouse, and the third largest is the newspaper. The British collected 16 million.

In addition, the box office of Italy and Australia have both exceeded 10 million. This leaves six countries and regions with an overseas box office of over 10 million, with revenues of up to 103 million U.S. dollars!

The box office performance of these six countries alone is enough to surprise everyone, ""'s overseas box office actually crossed the 100 million threshold, which is simply a miracle. When the major production companies saw the international box office report of "Pulp Fiction", they were all dumbfounded. At this time they began to regret it. Unfortunately, it was too late. They all missed the opportunity to become part of this historical monument. I watched the second-tier distribution companies and independent distribution companies earn a lot of money from a "pulp fiction".

""The box office performance in the other 31 countries and regions is not inferior, with a total of 66 million U.S. dollars in revenue, which also makes the film's overseas cumulative box office to 169 million U.S. dollars in one fell swoop.

""'S overseas box office is slightly lower than that of North America, but it is almost the same. From this point of difference, we can see the clues-the American attribute of this movie is still stronger.

Although the North American box office of "" is only higher than Hugo's previous "" and "", the outstanding performance of overseas markets has allowed the film's global box office to reach 341 million U.S. dollars, which is easily surpassed. After "", it became the third best performance of Hugo International's box office, second only to "" and "".

"" has also become Hugo's fifth international box office work that broke 200 million yuan, and the fourth consecutive work that broke 300 million yuan. Coupled with the previous super popularity, Hugo only took a year to start with "" To "Pulp Fiction", a total of three works have occupied a place in the international film market, and they have become the most popular international actors at the box office after that.

Even though I sigh repeatedly, when people see ""'s box office achievements, they still can't help but think of its 8 million dollar investment. With 8 million in exchange for more than 340 million U.S. dollars in income, more than four hundred times the income is enough to make any production company jealous, and it is enough to make any production company pay attention to it— —Anyway, the cost of independent films is low enough for any production company to put Hugo on the list of "must co-actors".

With the birth of countless historical records of "", this movie has truly become a historical monument. The previous debates about "pulp fiction" and "" have become the best condiments for today's brilliance~www.readwn.com ~At the same time, the "20 million pay" dispute between MGM Pictures and Universal Pictures has also become a topic of most concern.

In fact, the "20 million film pay" battle lasted less than three weeks, because "Future Water World" officially signed with Kevin Costner, and the new "007" signed with Pierce Brosnan. Naturally, the remuneration of the two contracts was not 20 million U.S. dollars, and people realized that this is actually just a hype between the two major film companies, and it has nothing to do with Hugo itself.

But the problem is that people now think that it is a matter of course to give Hugo US$20 million in remuneration. Look at the profit that every Hugo film brings to the production company, even the worst box office "" in the world. With an income of 170 million U.S. dollars, if you use 20 million U.S. dollars in remuneration, you can exchange it for hundreds of times-no, just a few tens of times the income is worth the major production companies to take the risk.

Therefore, although the "20 million pay" dispute has come to an end, the discussion on Hugo pay has just begun. Ironically, people realize that Hugo’s latest work is a "Before Sunrise" with an investment of only 2.5 million US dollars. This is really typical, isn't it? . [supply].
